[daan weijs] Presentation software
Power Point Like it or loathe it, PowerPoint is here to stay. At 20 years old it is still the leading presentation software. At one point it was estimated that there are 30 million PowerPoint presentations given every day. But is it really time to ditch PowerPoint?
2. Flash For stunning presentations that you can also put on-line Flash is by far the best presentation technology on the market. The animation effects and the ability to import video are stunning. The biggest problem is that it takes a high degree of proficiency to get it to work for you. I have been on a couple of day classes and still find it extremely difficult to do even a most basic presentation. There are quite a number of examples of Flash Presentations you can find on the web.

[ Nandi Masembe] What is a Wiki?A Wiki is a type of website that allows absolutely anyone to edit its pages. The word wiki is short for WikiWikiWeb. WikiWiki is a word in Hawaiian that means fast of speed. Some examples of Wiki website are Wikipedia, Anarchopedia and Conservapedia. Every wiki can be changed, or edited by anyone and everyone, but some important pages cannot be changed by anyone. Wikis are central places where we all can share information with each other, people can add new information, and then people read them. Wikis allow information from all around the world to be collected http://blogs.toonboom.com/professional/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/wikipedia-logo.pnghttp://www.answers.yahoo.com

Video Editing
Video editing is the process of editing segments of motion video footage, special effects and sound recordings. Motion picture film editing is a predecessor to video editing and, in several ways, video editing simulates motion picture film editing, in theory and the use of non-linear and linear editing systems. Using video or film, a director can communicate non-fictional and fictional events. The goal of editing is to manipulate these events for better or for worse communication. It is a visual art. Early video recorders were so expensive, and the quality degradation caused by copying was so great, that 2 inch Quadruplex videotape was edited by visualizing the recorded track with ferrofluid and cutting with a razor blade or guillotine cutter and splicing with tape. Improvements in quality and economy, and the invention of the flying erase head, allowed new video and audio material to be recorded over the material already recorded on an existing tape. This technique was referred to as linear editing. If a scene closer to the beginning of the videotape needed to be changed in length, all later scenes would need to be recorded onto the tape again. In addition, sources could be played back simultaneously through a vision mixer to create more complex transitions between scenes. There was a transitional analog period using multiple source VCRs or Laserdisc players, but modern non-linear editing systems use video digitally captured onto a hard drive from an analog or digital video source. Content is ingested and recorded natively in the appropriate codec which will be used by software such as Sony Vegas, Avid's Media Composer and Xpress Pro, Apple's Final Cut Pro, and Adobe's Premiere to manipulate the captured footage. High definition video is becoming more popular and can be readily edited using the same software along with related motion graphics programs. Clips are arranged on a timeline, music tracks and titles are added, effects can be created, and the finished program is "rendered" into a finished video. The video may then be distributed in a variety of ways including DVD, web streaming, QuickTime Movies, iPod, CD-ROM, or videotape. For the home market, products such as AVS Video Editor, Adobe Premiere Elements, AVID Express DV, Cyber LinkPower Director, Final Cut Express, Sony Vegas, Pinnacle Studio, Lilly, Ulead Video Studio, Roxio Easy Media Creator, and movie auto Producer have come on the market with the emergence of computer video editing for the home PC. Two free programs that are bundled with computers are Apple'siMovie and Microsoft's Windows Movie Maker. There are many other free open source video-editing programs too. These include Kdenlive, Kino, Openshot and Cinelerra.
